About trandoshan names

Trandoshans are the reptilian hunters of Trandosha, worshippers of the Scorekeeper who grants jagannath points for kills, and the traditional enemies of the Wookiees on neighboring Kashyyyk. Their names sound the way they look: Bossk (whose name means devours his prey), his father Cradossk, the Clone Wars hunt-master Garnac, the salvager Gha Nachkt, the Republic Commando slaver Pekt and Legends figures like Ssk'ra, Krussk and Nakaron. Nearly all are one or two syllables, front-loaded with a hard consonant and closed with a hiss or a stop.

The key ingredients are doubled s clusters (ss, ssk, rrssk) that mimic a lizard's hiss, hard k, g and t stops at the end of a word, and rolled or doubled r's in the middle. Vowels are usually a single short a, o or u, and Trandoshans rarely use surnames; a hunter is known by one name and, if pressed, by his clan or his father's name (Bossk, son of Cradossk). Long, flowing names would sound like a Twi'lek, not a Trandoshan.

The list follows those rules with single names for hunters, slavers and mercenaries, plus a set of paired name-and-clan combinations for characters who need something more formal in a Black Sun or bounty guild scene.

Tips for choosing a name

  • Stick to one or two syllables. Bossk, Pekt, Garnac and Cradossk are the canon range; anything longer starts to lose the reptilian bite.
  • Put the hiss at the end: -ssk, -ss and -sk endings (Vossk, Drassk, Sskirr) sound most authentic, while -kt and -kk endings (Pekt, Grakkt) suit blunt, brutal characters.
  • Trandoshans usually go by a single name, so save the two-word forms for formal introductions or use the second word as a clan or sire name.
  • For a bounty hunter, pick a name that is easy for other characters to snarl in dialogue; Bossk works because it is short and harsh in any accent.
  • Give female Trandoshans the same sounds; canon does not soften their names, so Sskirr or Ssath fits a huntress as well as a hunter.

Frequently asked questions

How do Trandoshan names sound?

Short and hissing. Canon names like Bossk, Cradossk, Garnac, Pekt and Ssk'ra are one or two syllables with doubled s clusters, hard k or t stops and rolled r's, and short a, o or u vowels. Most Trandoshans use a single name.

Who are the most famous Trandoshans in Star Wars?

Bossk, the bounty hunter from The Empire Strikes Back and The Clone Wars, is the best known. Others include his father Cradossk, the Wookiee-hunter Garnac and his son Dar, the salvager Gha Nachkt, and the slaver Pekt from Republic Commando.

Do Trandoshans have last names?

Rarely. Canon Trandoshans are known by a single name and identify themselves by clan or parentage when needed, so if you want a fuller name, treat the second word as a clan or sire name rather than a Western-style surname.

Can I use these names in a Star Wars RPG or fanfic?

Yes. Canon names such as Bossk and Garnac belong to Lucasfilm and are best kept to fan works, but the original names in the list are free to use for Edge of the Empire, SWTOR, Galaxy of Heroes and fanfiction characters.
